EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the entrance of a monastery that holds centuries of history within its walls. The image, captured by the Spanish School in the 12th century, showcases the grandeur and architectural brilliance of the Monestir de Poblet in Catalonia, Spain. Founded in 1151, this ancient monastery stands as a testament to Spanish Cistercian architecture. The view of the church facade is simply breathtaking; every intricate detail tells a story of devotion and spirituality. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported to an era where faith was at the center of life. The portal arch serves as a gateway into another world – one filled with tranquility and contemplation. Behind these defensive walls lies a sanctuary where monks once sought solace from worldly distractions. It's fascinating to imagine how many generations have passed through this very entrance over hundreds of years. Ken Welsh's skillful capture brings out the essence and beauty that still resonates within these aged stones. This print allows us to appreciate not only the physical structure but also its historical significance as an abbey and monastic retreat. As we admire this remarkable piece of art, let us reflect on our own journey towards inner peace and enlightenment. May it inspire us to seek moments of serenity amidst our bustling lives, just as those who entered through this very doorway centuries ago did.
